Hello, I am teaching myself programming and am doing it with a focus around sound and audio since that's where my interest lies . I wrote a little piece of code to trigger sound files from keys on the keyboard. However, I did it in DEV C++ and in order to do this I needed to add -lwinmm to the linker in DEV C++.

My newbie question is, how do I do this in Visual Express C++ ?

Here is the code written as a little tutorial that outlines how I got it to work in DEV C++

C code:Trigger audio file from keyboard in Windows XP

Thanks in advance.

You would need to add the library to your project through project settings for it to be searched.

Try checking in project properties -> Configuration properties -> Linker.

In there you may add the library reference and add it as a dependency.
